Reporter Wendy Tynes is
making a name for herself, bringing down sexual offenders on nationally
televised sting operations.But when
social worker Dan Mercer walks into her trap, Wendy gets thrown into a story
more complicated than she could ever imagine.Dan is tied to the disappearance of a seventeen-year-old New Jersey
girl, and the shocking consequences will have Wendy doubting her instincts
about the motives of the people around her, while confronting the true nature
of guilt, grief, and her own capacity for forgiveness…

My Review:

CAUGHT is a rollercoaster ride
with more twists and turns that you won’t want to get off until the train hits
the end of the track!

Seventeen-year-old Haley
McWaid is a high school senior who goes missing.She has never been in trouble before, gets
good grades and just seems to vanish leaving her parents heart-stricken.

Dan Mercer, is a social
worker who works with trouble youth and receives word that a young girl is in
trouble and could he meet her at her home to talk as she is shy.When Dan arrives he realizes he’s been caught
in a sting operation set up by t.v. report Wendy Tynes who is trying to expose
sexual predators.Dan soon finds himself
caught up in something he had no intentions of getting caught up in and Wendy
is thrown into a situation she just wasn’t prepared for.

This book reminded me of
the television show on MSNBC with Rick Hansen where they monitor chat rooms
online and set up meetings with alleged sexual predators of young kids.

WELCOME

Welcome to my little part of the web! The Book BagLady (that's me), reviews books for you! I like all types of genres: fiction, non-fiction, literature, women's novels, light romance, memoirs, biographies and autobiographies. The only type of books you won't see me review are: sci-fi; werewolf/vampire type novels; westerns; and heavy romance.
There is nothing better than spending a lazy day with a good book and a nice hot cup of tea!
I always try to be fair when reviewing books and though I particularly might not be too fond of one, it doesn't mean you won't like it.
Hope you'll have a gander at my book reviews and leave me a comment anytime you feel inspired to do so. Looking forward to meeting you all!
